Too-Too Thursday - Sammeth - Really?

Really, Ancestry, Catherine Sammeth? I always thought finding my mom on the 1940 census would be a breeze. After all, Zimmeth is not a really common surname.

Well, the trained monkeys at Ancestry.com botched it. They indexed it as Sammeth. I can guarantee that those first two letters are not Sa.

Finding my aunt and uncle was a lot easier as their names were spelled correctly.

This is fun?
